Boa Vista lies just to the south of Sal. The main town is Sal Rei, on the north coast. One startling characteristic of Boa Vista is the vast sand dunes that stretch across the island.
Boa Vista is less developed in terms of tourism than Sal with the majority of the hotels located close to Sal Rei and the airport and on a beautiful beach. A new development – the ClubHotel Riu Touareg – is further along the coast and has its own private beach.
Things to see and do.
Despite its barren appearance the whole beauty of Boa Vista is its nothingness. Sand dunes can be explored by quad bikes or 4×4’s. Drive around the coast and you will come across one of many deserted and spectacular beaches and coves. For the more adventurous, there are day trips to explore some of the other islands.
Watersports.
Boa Vista is the ideal place to get stuck into watersports. Windsurfing and kitesurfing are becoming more and more popular on Boa Vista. Snorkelers and divers will not miss out on the action either with the rich marine life and endless ship wrecks the litter the coastline.
